It is clear that all the toxins in the body “create” sadness, so cleaning our body of toxins is very important. There are various methods for detoxification and successful ways of cleaning our body. But none of them is as effective as this one - body detoxifying with rice.

Get 30 tablespoons white rice (for example-if you are 30 years old, 31tbs if you are that age, and so on...). Rinse it well and place it in a glass jar. Fill it with hot water to the top, close the lid and leave it in the fridge. On the next morning, drain the water. Take a spoonful of rice and then cook it for 3-4 minutes without salt (in plain water).

Eat up rice on an empty stomach, preferably in the morning. Fill again the rest of jar with boiling water, and leave it in refrigerator until the next morning. Repeat this procedure for cleaning the body every day until you eat up whole amount of  rice.

The secret of this method is hidden in the rice grains, which have crystal structure. When the grains are dipped in water, the starch is removed and the rice becomes pure. It is digested in the intestines (not in the stomach), so its grains act as absorbent. This method helps the intestines, blood vessels, joints and other parts of the body to be released from toxins, heavy metals and other harmful substances.

Cleansing the body with rice helps to normalize itself and to regulate weight, as well. After this treatment, you will feel not only healthier, but younger. It is recommended nothing to eat or drink, at least three hours after eating the rice.

After this cleansing, back pain, neck and joints pains will disappear. The effects of the treatment are gradual.  Only two weeks later you’ll see how body start cleaning itself. And you'll notice that toxins will be removed through urine and faeces. Urine color will change itself. Remember to drink plenty of liquids - at least 2 liters of water daily. It is best to drink water and green tea.
